Give yourselves a pat on the back, 'scapers, because this one's all thanks to your feedback.

No need to wax lyrical about an update with such obvious wins: more bank space and less faff (now that all-things-aura have been moved to one, central hub with the Aura Management interface), plus the ability to activate, deactivate and swap your auras during combat.

Enchanted Bakriminel Bolts

We had a 'now kiss' moment. On the left, the Bakriminel bolts; on the right, the Enchanted gem-tipped bolts. Our devs glanced from one to the other, pushed them together, and then it happened.

Here's the gist: you can now tip Bakriminel bolts with any one of eleven gems, then enchant said gem to get the correlating effect. The result? The new best-in-show bolts in-game, with tier 95 damage and a level 99 ranged requirement to equip. Phwoar.

Here's the list of bolts and their benefits:

Players can now buy each of the damaged god books from Jossik before completing prior books.
